  • Is Libertarian Anarchy Feasible?
    No. 09-09 April 2009 WORKING PAPER IF A PURE MARKET ECONOMY IS SO GOOD, WHY DOESN’T IT EXIST? The Importance of Changing Preferences versus Incentives in Social Change By Edward P. Stringham and Jeffrey Rogers Hummel The ideas presented in this research are the authors’ and do not represent official positions of the Mercatus Center at George Mason University. If a Pure Market Economy Is So Good, Why Doesn’t It Exist? The Importance of Changing Preferences Versus Incentives in Social Change EDWARD P. STRINGHAM and JEFFREY ROGERS HUMMEL* Shelby Cullom Davis Endowment, Trinity College, Hartford, CT 06106 Department of Economics, San Jose State University, San Jose, CA 95192 [email protected]; 860-297-2437 [email protected]; 408-924-5418 Abstract Many economists argue that a pure market economy cannot come about because people will always have incentives to use coercion (Cowen and Sutter, 2005; Holcombe, 2004). We maintain that these economists leave out an important factor in social change. Change can come about by altering incentives or preferences, but since most economists ignore changing preferences, they too quickly conclude that change is impossible. History shows that social change based on changes in preferences is common. By recognizing that preferences need not be constant, political economists can say much more about changing the world.

  • Socialism: the World's Greatest Generator of Poverty | Mises Wire
    M I S E S W I R E Socialism: The World's Greatest Generator of Poverty A A TAGS World History, Political Theory 17 HOURS AGO • Allen Mendenhall If you’re looking for a short introduction to socialism that rewards rereading, Thomas DiLorenzo’s The Problem With Socialism is it. Perhaps your son or daughter has returned from college talking about collective control of the means of production and sporting Bernie Sanders t-shirts. Perhaps you’re a political novice looking 18 COMMENTS for informed guidance. Perhaps you’re frustrated with America’s economic decline and deplorable unemployment rates. Perhaps you listened with bewilderment as some pundit this election season distinguished democratic socialism from pure socialism in an attempt to justify the former. Whoever you are, and whatever your occasion for curiosity, you’re likely to find insight and answers from DiLorenzo. A professor of economics at Loyola University Maryland, DiLorenzo opens his book with troubling statistics: 43% of millennials, or at least those between ages 18 and 29, view socialism more favorably than capitalism, and 69% of voters under 30 would vote for a socialist presidential candidate. Socialism—depending on how it’s defined in relation to communism—may have killed over 100 million people and impoverished countless others over the course of the 20th Century. So why have the youth (full disclaimer: by certain measures, at 33, I’m considered a millennial myself) welcomed this ideology that’s responsible for mass killings, organized theft, war crimes, forced labor, concentration camps, executions, show trials, ethnic cleansing, disease, totalitarianism, censorship, starvation, hyperinflation, poverty, and terror? Why have death, destruction, and abject destitution become so hip and cool? Because of effective propaganda and utopian promises of “free” everything.

The practice of getting in names right is particularly important in the legal profession for we are, fact, in a line of work that all too often richly rewards members of the pro- 3 fession who succeed in obfuscating names and meanings.

  • Classical Liberalism in the Czech Republic · Econ Journal Watch
    Discuss this article at Journaltalk: http://journaltalk.net/articles/5889 ECON JOURNAL WATCH 12(2) May 2015: 274–292 Classical Liberalism in the Czech Republic Josef Šíma1 and Tomáš Nikodym2 LINK TO ABSTRACT In the Czech Republic the term liberalism still signifies classical liberalism, so we just speak of liberalism. In this article we treat the cultural and intellectual life of liberalism in the Czech Republic, as opposed to the policy record, and report especially on recent history. We especially treat economists and economic thought. In what is today the Czech Republic, liberalism has had a very turbulent history, with glorious ups and wretched downs. The story can be divided into three periods: 1. The pre-World War II period: The country was part of the intellectual sphere of the Austrian monarchy, which ended in 1918 but a legacy of strong Austrian influence continued past that date. 2. The period of the oppressive political regimes of national and international socialisms, with short and interesting revivals of independent thinking in 1945–1948 and the mid-1960s. 3. The period from the Velvet Revolution in 1989 to today. In most European countries today, liberal thought is marginalized and underdeveloped. But in the Czech Republic it has considerable presence—in the academic community, in public debate, and in public opinion generally. Such presence flows out of the work done over the past several decades. The lead author 1.
